Answer options

• A. IPS is integrated as a security service on SRX Series devices.

• C. IPS is a standalone platform running on dedicated hardware or as a virtual device.
• D. IPS uses protocol anomaly rules to detect unknown attacks.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Option A is correct because the Junos IPS feature is indeed integrated into SRX Series devices, enhancing their security capabilities. Option D is also correct since IPS uses protocol anomaly rules to detect unknown attacks, which is a critical method in identifying potential threats. Options B and C are incorrect as IPS does not primarily rely on sandboxing for detection, nor is it a standalone platform; it is integrated within the SRX devices.
